    Hi,

    You'll find the following links useful:

    https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=150254

    pigpio library

     

    Basically the answer to your question is 'no', and the longer answer is 'maybe, but only in software', and it's possible using Python.

    What are your requirements? If you're happy with it being slow and having some jitter then bit banging means it's possible on every pin. If you need critical timing or high speed then you're out of luck. There are of course add-ons that will give you more high quality PWM outputs.
